Use a pressure bleeder. mine is a gunson easy bleed. Does the whole car in less than 15 minutes, then just top up the tyre pressure whichever wheel you used or you could have used your spare. Anyway, the cream is moisture and you do purge 99% of it when bleeding if you use a pressure bleeder. Mine takes 500ml per fill so to change brake fluid for new, i put 500ml per caliper through the rear and 250ml per caliper for the fronts. You will see what comes out turn from horrible to new in the tube and that tube doesn;t need any one way valves or leaving under the surface of liquid in the bottom of the overflow jar, the new fluid is being forced through at around 25 Psi so the tube off the bleed nipple is just a waste outlet.

Seriously, once you know all 4 bleed nipples are loose and will not snap, it's a 15 minute job and it's 99% new fluid.

Gunson easy bleed is 15 quid at most motorfactors.

Hope this helps
